Nitriding stainless steel at moderate temperature: Time- and depth-resolved characterization of the near surface composition during the nitriding process

Parascandola, S.; Kruse, O.; Richter, E.; Möller, W.

Time- and depth-resolved compositional analysis has been performed during the nitriding of stainless steel in order to improve the understanding of the nitriding kinetics. It is directly observed that the surface oxide layer acts as a transport barrier. The experimental data are discussed on the basis of a simple transport model that considers the removal of the surface oxide layer due to sputtering, its regeneration from the residual gas and the ballistic implantation depth of nitrogen.
